Top Tip of the Week

My top tip is a breakfast tip. I love porridge for my breakfast as it fills me up for the day so I am less likely to eat crap. Last week I discovered a great new tip- Add a teaspoon of coconut flour to your porridge.

What does this do?This causes your porridge double in size. So you get a great source of fibre, you stay fuller for longer without a significant increase in carbs and calories.Making the perfect bowl of porridge:1. Add water to gluten free oats or rolled or steel cut oats2. Add coconut flour and stir3. Add some whey protein- Kinetica Sports Vanilla Flavour4. Cook in microwave for 2 minutes5. Serve with a drizzle of rice syrup or maple syrupThis is a great breakfast to have before or after a workout if you workout in the mornings. It is high in protein, high in fibre, quick to make and keeps you feeling fuller for longer.
